What the Palestinian victory celebrations mean
By
Ariel Beery
Hamas et al presented its terrorists as victims, and the world felt pity. But – spoiler – victims don’t celebrate victory. Here’s what Israel must do to defeat the evil next door
Rachel Sharansky Danziger
Waiting for the deal, I ask: What is my job in this moment?
The outcome of this war and our national future are not predetermined – the way we act right now has the power to affect them
Nadav Tamir
The tail that wagged the dog
Blinken was right to present his plan for the ’day after’ in Gaza, but Bibi wouldn’t hear of it. Maybe Trump’s administration will actually manage to implement it
The politicization revolution in judicial selection
By
Guy Lurie
The Sa’ar-Levin proposal would inevitably lead to appointing judges based on their political loyalties rather than professional merit
Yedidia Stern
The promise and pitfalls of the latest judicial reform outline
The proposed changes in the selection committee for Supreme Court appointments could lead to a partisan ’race to the bottom’
Mordechai I. Twersky
To YU’s Rabbi Ari Berman: The inauguration is not your stage
Is Yeshiva University sacrificing its chartered values or will it use the moment in Trump’s limelight to call for reflection and redirection?
Why a map caused an outbreak of ‘historo-phobia’
By
Shawn Zelig Aster
Emirati and Jordanian anger over a map showing ancient Israelite control of Transjordan suggests a phobia of pre-Islamic history
Barbara Aiello
What’s a rabbi doing at the nativity scene?
A mock synagogue at a Christmas festival in an Italian mountain village offered a surprising opportunity for Jewish outreach
Sarit Silverman
Cameras alone won’t keep our children safe in daycare
With enhanced care comes improved safety: Early childhood educators and staff need training, supervision, and support
Exercise is not for me
By
Jo Sugarman
But my husband is a pro, so I go out to cheer him through his triathlon, gel-packs and all (no, I don’t know how we last as a couple)
Top Ops
Sarah Tuttle-Singer
A prayer for firefighters and first responders
Blessed are the ones who run toward the danger, who wade into the waters, who carve paths through the wreckage
Hussain Abdul-Hussain
Lebanon’s Aoun could move toward peace – if Hezbollah lets him
The Iran-backed militia is bowed but not broken – and it could still find a way to hijack Saudi funds for its own rehabilitation
